In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Most if not nearly all of the current generation are a bit bobbins, though. I feel like it’s easy pickings for Novak these last however many years.
Would be all delighted to lose all the money I've put on Novak. Come on Carlos!
Great mental strength to take that second set. Very well played.
Once you get to 6-5... theres always a set point, it wasn't on his serve either. And no, Alcaraz stuck to his game, and outplayed him, that's why he sticks to his ultra aggressive game... it works.
If he could be a little patient with when he pulls his trigger or goes for stupid drop shots, he can completely dominate these rallies.
Alcaraz needs to stop these drop shots. The success rate of them isnt high and he is doing it too frequently.
Novak will still win. You know he'll find a way
Oh I'm certain of that but there's some slight hope at least now.Novak will still win. You know he'll find a way
What a shot by Carlos
He lost the point, but that cross court return was wild from Djok
Alcaraz breaks..... can't believe it. Novak gonna be mad at the umpire...
Its not looking good brev
Nows the time to put your bets on Novak.
Alcaraz outplaying him. Djokovic slowly losing the nerves now. the serve is a big weakness.
Roland Garros all over again.
Wow I didn’t expect Djokovics level since 3-0 up in the tie break to just crash. Alcaraz isn’t even playing smashing tennis
This is going 5 sets if Alcaraz wins it. Djokovic can win it in 4. Despite how it looks right now. Djokovic is just too good at staying in rallies.
Yes!
LFG Alcaraz!
They are but there is an element of Djokovic just too good for them
BTW Alacaraz is the only guy who comes close to Djokovic in returning
I wouldn't rule out Alcaraz winning in 4 sets. That said I still fancy Djokovic to win the match.
I know but it's Djokovic. I just don't see him losing in 4 sets.
Alcaraz' coaches sitting there like look at the absolute monster we've created.
I'll be quite stunned if Carlos wins 3 straight sets to be honest. If he wins, I think he'll do it in 5.
Ffs.
Recent history suggests that if Novak does lose.... he loses by losing 3 straight! 5 of his last 6 losses in slam finals did that... 3 3-0 and 2 3-1's.
Oh dear. Some brain dead shots from Carlos
Alcaraz isn’t great when it’s an easy shot.
Very frustrating to watch.
Very frustrating to watch.
Just giving Novak the break back..
Were these against Stan and Rafa? I know one was Medvedev but that was a whitewash.
He has a long way to go to show he can win this. The one set he won - he nearly lost. Djokovic will break him back
Djokovic's pissed over that.
Quality has dropped. Both are just making errors
Huge hold Carlos.
Huge hold this.
I'm a parrot.
Interestingly, McEnroe expecting Djokovic to be broken again now due to the wind against his serve
